<div dir="ltr">Hello All, I would like to write a method which will check to see if a repository exists and enable it. My current scenario is that I want to install a specific software package from a repo that is in my repo list but currently disabled. Currently, the way PackageKit enables repositories is by REPO_ID. The method "pk_client_repo_enable()" takes a string value which is checked against the REPO_ID's of existing repo's and (in Fedora 9 with YUM) if it matches, it sets the "enabled" flag of the corresponding repo to "1". This poses a problem for me since I want to ensure that the REPO_URL of the repository record on the system matches the URL of the repository data I am checking against, not just the REPO_ID. For example, in the possible occurence that the REPO_ID of a repository is not the "standard" REPO_ID name (i.e., if I changed the default fedora REPO_ID from "fedora" to "fedora9"), an attempt to call the method "pk_client_repo_enable()" using the REPO_ID="fedora" will fail with the error "Error: repo-not-found : Error getting repository data for fedora, repository not found". Although arbitrary changing of the REPO_ID is not likely to happen often, it is possible. I would like to know if this has been considered at all and/or if a workaround exists. Is it currently possible to verify a repository exists based upon the URL instead of the REPO_ID? If not, would a function such as "pk_client_repo_exists()" using URL matching be useful? Or, maybe adding "repo_url" as a variable returned by "pk_client_repo_list()" through the "repo-detail" callback signal would be better? Please comment and advise on how I may possibly solve this problem. Thank you all for your comments. P.S. I am currently working on Fedora 9 with the 0.2.X stable branch. Dorian </div>
